One-time Governor of Rivers State and the current Minister responsible for the Ministry of Transportation at the centre, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has been described as a man who is stubborn
A chieftain of the APC and a close pal of the Minister, Tonye Princewill made the assertion.
Princewill, a former gubernatorial candidate, said the Amaechi he knows could be stubborn to achieve results.
He stressed that the Ubima – born politician is the kind of character that the nation requires as a successor to President Muhammadu Buhari.
“Amaechi is very stubborn for results. He does not take ‘no’ for an answer. He goes for results and he has always gotten results in anything he sets his eyes”, Princewill remarked.
Princewill said he and other associates of the two-time Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly are going round the country to market the qualities of the man to the Nigerian people
Princewill asserted, “Amaechi took over the moribund railway industry and transformed it into something that we all can be proud of as a people. “
“He may not remember friendship” the Kalabari prince stated, “when he becomes president because he (Amaechi) needs results that would make Nigerians happy.”
Expressing confidence that Amaechi can be trusted to run the country efficiently, Princewill emphasized that the best decision the APC could take would be to hand him its presidential ticket.
“I am not saying this because Amaechi is from my state or region. I know for a fact that Nigeria needs Amaechi who has enough energy to work for the good of this country.
“He understands the politics of this country and knows how to tackle our multi-faceted problems”, Princewill added.
